Eli - 6 months

This is long overdue but as with everything in life, better late than never :)

October 7th marked Eli's 1/2 year birthday and with every milestone it seems, a visit to the pediatrician was in order. This time around, it was for his 2 vaccination shots and the regular flu shot.

He was a happy baby during the car ride and when we checked in at the front desk, hamming it up for the nurses and the rest of the patients until he saw the nurse from his last visit... I had my back to her and did not realize it until I saw his eyes widen and his lips quiver... how DO babies remember???? It's simply amazing!

This time around, they had some toys in the room which I used to distract him, he did not cry with Shots #1 and #2 but with #3, he realized what was going on but 20 seconds later, he was back to being Mr Happy.


Getting ready to go to the doctor's office


Being cute whilst waiting


More waiting... not sure why they bother with appointments since we have never seen the doctor earlier than 1 hour after arrival!


Looking at the pretty girl in the waiting room... my boy has started young!


The moment of truth, the weigh-in


My itty bitty 5-pounder is 17 whole pounds now... just the perfect size for snuggles and kisses :)
